Historical Research Intern

Save to Favorites

Join our education team for the fall semester! The intern will have the opportunity to produce original research in aid of the museum’s mission. This will include conducting primary and secondary source research, writing up findings in various ways, and creating relevant bibliographies. If the project results in a publication, the intern will receive co-author attribution. Available topics can be tailored to intern interest, but they will all center around the history of what is now Virginia Beach. This internship will offer an opportunity to make important contributions to future exhibits, museum publications, and volunteer training.

• Conducting primary and secondary source research

• Creating relevant bibliographies

• Have an interest in history
• Demonstrate excellent communication skills, verbally and in writing
